Due to Ludhiyana demand the railway should change the name of Chandigarh-Amritsar DURANTO (Non-stop) to an ordinary superfast and allow it to stop at LUDHIYANA, Jalandhar, and more stations

It's Duronto...no commercial halts between destinations....chaahe jitna demand kiya jaay to bhi.............
This CDG - ASR Duronto Exp should be kept intact as a Non - Stop Train . Plus that , another CDG - ASR Shatabdi / AC Jan Shatabdi Exp can also be introduced with Commercial Stoppages en route like Morinda , Ludhiana Jn , Jalandhar City Jn and Beas Jn (Here Ambala Cantt can be avoided and done away with loco reversal ) :) What say ??
Loco reversal is required at Sirhind so it can't be done away with. Better this train be changed into a Jan shatabdi express with stoppages at important stations enroute.
Is there so much patronage between ASR and CDG? I don't think so. This train should be converted to Shatabdi or Jan Shatabdi. Railways has limited resources and should be intelligently deployed. This Duronto is started only for political reasons.
even the track b/w morinda & sanehwal is not completed, so under political pressure this train is started through another route.
